The slightly viscous clear oil of Papua/New Guinea Sandalwood presents a uniquely different top/heart-note from other sandalwoods I have encountered. After being placed on the AromaStone the oil gradually begins to transmit its sweet floral top-note to the atmosphere and it very soon joins its floral quality with a deep, rich vanillic/balsamic heart-note. Sitting just beneath this sweet floral-balsamic accord is a dry, precious woods note that deep into the dryout emerges with more distinction in the one to two hour range.
